[OE-core] does pkg_preinst_* not run at image creation time?

[Robert P. J. Day]

  reading yocto dev manual, on post-installation scripts, and there's
this note:

"Equivalent support for pre-install, pre-uninstall, and post-uninstall
scripts exist by way of pkg_preinst, pkg_prerm, and pkg_postrm,
respectively. These scrips work in exactly the same way as does
pkg_postinst with the exception that they run at different times.
Also, because of when they run, they are not applicable to being run
at image creation time like pkg_postinst."

  i would have thought that pkg_preinst_* would still be run at image
creation time, no? or am i misunderstanding something?
